Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 2 ripe peaches, sliced
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all the ingredients: 2 ripe peaches, 1 cup of Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon of honey, 1/2 cup of almond milk, and 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon.
- Wash the peaches thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or pesticides. Slice the peaches in half, remove the pit, and then cut them into smaller slices or chunks for easier blending.
- In a blender, combine the sliced peaches, Greek yogurt, honey, almond milk, and cinnamon. Make sure the lid is securely fastened before blending.
- Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and creamy, which should take about 30-60 seconds. If the smoothie is too thick, you can add a little more almond milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Once blended, taste the smoothie and adjust the sweetness if necessary by adding more honey, depending on your preference and the ripeness of the peaches.
- Pour the smoothie into two glasses, and if desired, garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a slice of peach on the rim of the glass for presentation.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Peaches Cream Protein Smoothie!
Tips
- Choose Perfectly Ripe Peaches: Select peaches that are slightly soft to the touch and have a sweet aroma. Ripe peaches will give your smoothie the most intense flavor and natural sweetness.
- Chill for Extra Refreshment: For an even more cooling experience, freeze your peach slices beforehand. This will make your smoothie thicker and more refreshing without diluting the flavor.
- Protein Boost Options: While Greek yogurt provides protein, you can enhance the protein content by adding a scoop of vanilla or unflavored protein powder.
- Customize Your Consistency: Adjust the almond milk quantity to achieve your preferred smoothie thickness. Less milk means a thicker smoothie, while more milk creates a more drinkable texture.
- Make It Instagrammable: Garnish with a peach slice, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a mint leaf to elevate the presentation and make your smoothie social media-worthy!
